Edward, thanks a lot! I did a "git clone
https://github.com/flashrom/flashrom
Then navigated to flashrom, did a make, make install, (skipped make clean
for now)
Then:
root@clay-MS-7C37:~/flashrom# flashrom -p internal
flashrom v1.2-163-g855d6b6 on Linux 5.8.0-25-generic (x86_64)
flashrom is free software, get the source code at https://flashrom.org

Using clock_gettime for delay loops (clk_id: 1, resolution: 1ns).
Found chipset "AMD FP4".
Enabling flash write... Warning: spireadmode not set, leaving spireadmode
unchanged.Warning: spispeed not set, leaving spispeed unchanged.OK.
Found Winbond flash chip "W25Q256.W" (32768 kB, SPI) mapped at physical
address 0x00000000fe000000.
No operations were specified.
root@clay-MS-7C37:~/flashrom#

It worked great! I have been looking for this and following it on Gerrit. I
see the merge is fresh, 10 hours old. I have a list of at least seven other
folks who have 0x59 & 0x61 boards and will notify them too. I do have one
who has an 0x51 board with a 0x51 board which is the other email from/to
Jean-Paul Crespy. The 0x51 was also listed in Rene Rebe's patch from the
flashrom list of Oct 12.

Anyway, thanks for all your work. I did notice you did more than just add
0x59 & 0x61, you made deeper changes that Rene did not think about, and all
for the better I must say.

Clay
